It's a tough time for the city. With Edinburgh City Council facing a £90 million budget deficit over the next three years, and having to trim and sometimes slash budgets, almost every week brings fresh stories of cuts, closures, and community organisations and voluntary groups having to make do with shrinking funding.

But where are the cuts hitting the hardest? Which parts of the city are worst affected?

This map shows some of the projects that are facing closure, represented as blue balloons.

And there are the six community centres that have been earmarked for closure by the council, including the Number Shop and the Gorgie War Memorial Hall – which campaigners are still hoping that they can save.

And the red balloons? They show the poorest parts of the city, according to the Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation, the methodology that the Scottish Executive uses to to identify the most deprived areas, and which "allows effective targeting of policies and funding" for those areas.

I'll leave you to decide whether the pain of these closures – of creches, primary schools and community centres – is being fairly and evenly spread through the city - or not.
